Stepping further down than that, when the user clicks "ok" to T&C's to download some obnoxious spyware or whatever, does that give you the right to abuse them anyway you see fit?
Not any way you see fit, but I do believe that if you spell out clearly in your EULA what the software will be doing and the user clicks OK, then they've got nothing to bitch about.

Just like the adult industry relies on that forgotten membership, the software folks rely on users not reading the EULA.

You could sneak "this software will blow up your computer and cause smoke to rise from the back of your CPU within 15 minutes of installation" into your EULA and no one would catch it until they had installed it on their third frigging machine...
